time for my Radioactive Iodine pill!

Just got a call from the doctor and found out my levels are clear to take my radioactive iodine pill tomorrow at 3:00 p.m. I have NEVER in mylife been so ready to swollow a pill!!! Here is the game plan

  1. Will kiss the kids goodbye for 4 days tomorrow around 1 and head to the hotel to check in and get my room ready

  2. Then will head to the hospital with Joe for my pill

  3. There I will swollow the pill and become radioactive within 1 hour. Told kids it’s kindof like what happened to Superman when he was exposed to Kryptonite. They’ve never seen superman so it really meant nothing to them. 

  4. Hoping we dont hit traffic tomorrow on the way to my hotel or Joe’s thyroid will die. He may even gain 20 pounds in the car ride over and become extremely moody. I’m sure you’ll be fine sweety.

  5. that was a joke, there’s no reason to panic. Joe will not be in the car with me.

  6. Joe will leave me for 4 days where I will watch movies, read, sleep in, workout, lay by the pool and order takeout be counting the minutes to be reunited to my family.

The possible side effects are nasea for the first day, losing saliva in my mouth, and everything tasting like metal for several months. I can try to protect my salvilary glands from being attacked by keeping my mouth moist with plenty of water, lemon wedges, sour candy, and gum. Went to the store today for all those fun things. God has been so faithful and I KNOW he will continue to be. When I think of all He has gotten me through since January 4th, I do not hesitate to SHOUT. He will not leave or forsake me now! I love my King Jesus~
